If you didn’t get a chance to upgrade your laptop or work computer during earlier sales, don’t fret. Retailers are slowly offering deals in preparation for the holiday gift-giving season and upcoming end-of-year sales events, including Black Friday. One such quiet deal is the discount of $160 on the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 2-in-1 Chromebook at Best Buy. This staggering discount means you’ll pay just $219 on this basic but reliable laptop instead of its regular asking price of $379. This deal is subject to change so we suggest acting fast.
The IdeaPad 3 is a 2-in-1 Chromebook laptop with a touchscreen. You can comfortably convert this laptop into a tablet by simply swiveling the attached keyboard per Lenovo’s instructions. The screen size is 11 inches, which makes this a great laptop for students and workers on the go. Despite its compact size, the screen resolution on this laptop is 2000 x 1000 pixels, which is great for drawing and note-taking. With its 4GB RAM and 128GB SSD, this laptop lets you get your most basic work done and even do some light gaming or binge-watching — all at a fraction of the cost of many laptops and tablets on the market.
